The federal executive always does the right thing, doesn’t it? The federal executive always does whatever it chooses to do for the right reasons,doesn’t it?
Take the Federal Communications Commission’s power grab euphemistically called “Net Neutrality.” But before we do, an observation:
Don’t you just love the way Washington bureaucrats always make the title of every executive branch agency initiative or legislative bill sound as if the intent and the entire content, as conscripted by its authors, is as pure and wholesome as the driven snow?
That makes one wonder if in the official position descriptions for the legions of staff on federal government payrolls there appears somewhere the requirement to be a spinmeister.
Now some observations regarding the Feds thrust to control the Internet under the guise of “Net Neutrality.”
The FCC intrusion initially targets the infrastructure of the Internet.
Of course, that means the Obama administration would be one step closer to nationalizing the Internet … and, then control the cable companies … and the telephone companies.
That’s one-sixth of the national economy.
And, that one-sixth is in addition to the auto and banking industries, already intimidated since inaugural 2009.
More specifically, it means all of the electronic communications industries would be under the thumb of any one man.
The U.S. Congress must step up and stop the runaway encroachments under way by the federal executive.
So far, Harry Reid and other Democrats in the Senate have successfully blocked SJ-6, which would have prevented the FCC runaway train of regulation.
It’s time for the U.S. House and Senate to rise above party and partisan politics and stop the FCC and the federal executive from encroaching on individual citizen choice, free markets, and ignoring the United States Constitution.
